Without a doubt Nzeogwu was a brave man and anyone with a contrary view is either a liar and have no truth and therefore as corrupt as the corrupt politicians that Nzeogwu wisely decided to eliminated in 1966; just as we also need Nzeogwu’s courage to eliminated the present corrupt Nigerian politicians and public officials.
Nzeogwu was a hero because he was brave, it is impossible to be called hero if one is not brave but timid, cowardly, and hedonist like Nigerian politicians. The reason Nigeria is the way it is today is because we do not have enough of Nzeogwu. Every successful, developed country anywhere in the world today had an Nzeogwu and not just one Nzeogwu but an immortal one. Nigeria killed its Nzeogwu and will never see progress until it calls back into being Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu.

Kaduna could not have been a tribal bigot because he was larger than life, he was intellectually advanced, his horizon extends beyond any boundary, and perhaps he was crazy for perfection in the most imperfect, cursed environment and people. He was very much aware of the consequences of his action but he knew that inaction was not an option. He died for a cause and what about you, what would you die for? A life not having anything to die does not worth living. Life is not about how long, how rich, how many wives and children, how much money these things passreth. But rather life is about one’s impact to lives. To me, Kaduna died a brave man which makes him a hero. I am not unmindful that to some he was villain but I prefer to die and be remembered no matter how, than to die like I never lived, and what about you?
